Hello!

@Anonymous sorry for the late relpy, I was out backpacking

 

So here is a picture of my queries: Q1.png

 

Master data and master data (2) are both access files with data. I am trying to append master data (2) to Master data because the access file with the data for Master Data is full. But every time I try to append or even append to new querie I keep getting the same error message. The headers are the same and I make sure that the code in advanced editor is the same for both sources (except the file source)

heres a sample of the data:
